Will not power up
Purchase Brother HL-6180DW in 2013, it's been sitting idol, unplugged, over a year. Another older printer went out, so I wanted to replace it with this one. When plugged in, it did power up. But then had to download drivers on the computer to use it, so turned it off. Tried to turn back on, but will not power up again. Tried several outlets and even changed power cords. I think it may be a blown internal fuse. Any suggestions? If a fuse, where is it located to replace it and where can I get one?

Anything happening at all when you plug it in and turn it on? Any lights or fans or just nothing at all.
Also, does the socket on the machine where you connect the power cord look ok and clean? I've been told that they can get oxidized after a while.. Doesn't explain turning on initially.

I have a HL-5250DN with the same problem. No lights, no nothing.
The power outlet and cord are good.
I can detect 110V through the switch on the brown wire. The TWO fuses on the LVPS are good.
There are no obvious burn marks on the LVPS board.
I don’t know what to test next. I’m hesitant to just tear the whole thing apart - if there is a better way, I’d love to hear it.

I have the same problem with the same model as well. Did you have any luck?

Hi, I have the same problem. could anyone tell how to check the output of the LVPS with a Multimeter? the connector has 13 pins (Zero Cross, Off Mode, Heat On, Dsleep, Relay drive 2, Relay drive 1, AC Direct, Pov, Pov, 24V L, 24V M2, 24V M1, Pov). thanks a lot for answers and hints!

How do you check if a capacitor is bad? Are there any signs or tools? I have a similar problem on another brand printer.
